August and December). These are drop-off sessions so children do not need to be accompanied – it is for children aged 8-16. Each session has a theme where we will complete activities and engage with nature based on the topic that month. This is a relaxed session where children can be themselves and work together to develop social skills and to foster a deep understanding of wildlife and a love of the natural world. In September we will try to get creative in some unusual ways using natural materials. We will create charcoal ink and wood quills, use natural textures for printing and more!Please head into the visitor centre on arrival.
